Quote:“Imagine if Reed Richards and Doctor Doom actually respected each other's capabilities and strengths, and learned to work together to mitigate each other’s weaknesses.”
“Hmmmm….”
“Its the same with a lot of the Boskonian’s I met. They were convinced of their own entitlement to be the hero of the story. They hated the idea of someone being more famous, more brilliant, more capable… while they knew they were more deserving. So many of them had that same common thread.”
“No wonder they give me so much trouble.”
“They were so terrified of being the forgotten NPC, they became the villain, convinced the whole world was their nemesis, justifying themselves by their heroic rights. Morality is different for the protagonists - being evil is ok when the hero does it. Hard men make hard choices.”
“I imagine, if they ever got the chance to walk in my shoes for a few days they’d quickly learn to be careful what they wished for. These things are bloody uncomfortable for a start.”
